Look at this fucking cool cover art!
If the Void Stranger OST wasn't enough, also dropping on streaming services and digital platforms1 today is a recording from an Ace Combat symphony concert held in 2021. That concert was a COVID-delayed follow-up to the first ACE/S concert held in 2019, which itself was a promotional affair for the release of Ace Combat 7. A funny thing about that first concert is that afterwards, audience members could get their picture taken in a flight jacket next to a cutout of the game's infamous dog.jpg2
Where the first concert was mostly AC7 tracks, the second concert diversified the set list with some of the best tracks from ACs 2, 4, 5 and Zero, including performances of "Megalith", "The Unsung War", "ZERO" and "The Liberation of Gracemeria", the obligatory final mission epics from 4, 5, Zero and 6 respectively.
Unlike the Kirby 30th anniversary concert, which HAL took down from youtube after a month, the livestream from this concert is (for now) still accessible, complete with English-subtitled host segments and embedded right here. Timestamps can be found in the video description.

The AC wiki (⚠️fandom), source of the photo op pics, says a recording of the first concert was attempted but unusable due to malfunctioning sound equipment
